“In the Beginning There was the Force<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This presentation will explore the parallels of Goethe\u2019s epic poem, Faust, and George Lucas\u2019 sci-fi masterpiece, Star Wars. Faust is a dark tale which describes the pull of sin and corruption in the form of bliss via a bargain between Dr. Faust and Mephistopheles. In Star Wars, I will be focusing on Anakin\u2019s draw to the Dark Side, his bargain with Darth Sidious and his foil, Luke, who overcomes every temptation that his father fell prey to. I will prove my argument by comparing the upbringings, trainings, the bargains, falls and possible redemptions for both Dr. Faust and Anakin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
